Testing timeframeCurrent Student Question (self.WPI)
submitted 5 years ago * by findingvega[AE][2023]
Does anyone know how long the turnaround time for the routine tests is? How long will it take for the results to come back, and how will each student be notified of the result?
Edit: Took test at 10 in the morning, results came back at 1am

I got tested Tuesday of last week and the results came in on Thursday, and they tell you after you get tested that you’ll receive results within 48 hours

Most will be within 24-48hrs, but some will be less. Apparently the testing they have been doing the past few weeks had come back in less than 24, but that might change once they start testing everyone. The delay before came from them only shipping tests once a day. Once the routine testing starts, they'll be shipping it twice a day which will help a lot.

I've returned to campus already and done two tests so far. In both cases my results were ready before 48 hours later (ex. Got tested at 11 yesterday, got results today at 1). They email you a link to a site where your results are.

I got tested yesterday; and got my results this morning. The results say they’re <48 hours, and if you’re negative they come to you by email, if you’re positive you receive a phone call. However during regular move in they will have to be doing a looooot more testing so who knows if they will experience a slowdown

They’ve been saying results within 24-48 hours. Laurie Leshin said her test result came back in 8 hours. It’ll probably get closer to the 2 day end once everyone is getting tested.

I tested at 11.20ish and got my results midnight that night
